Test & Smile Connector
This connector exchanges OMD data with a Test & Smile portal. Customer data including information about the planned resource is transmitted for all upcoming visits.
Two methods are provided, time-controlled and event-controlled.
Time-Controlled
Once a day (12:00 a.m.) all data for appointments from -48 h to +48 h for all resources is sent to Test & Smile.
Event-Driven
In the following case, an additional transfer is automatically triggered:
- One or more tasks for a resource are scheduled for today. This also includes the case that one or more orders are moved from one resource to another resource.
Changes to existing orders, planning, new unavailabilities or changes to the daily work pattern are not transmitted.
Requirements
- A Test & Smile portal with the
